The theme for the challenge is
ANYTHING CREATIVE/MIXED MEDIA GOES
This is what I have made......
I made a Notebook for the daughter of my colleque, she is an intern in Costa Rica and now she has a little notebook where she can write her adventures in....
I worked with a stencil to create the background. The 3th layer is Crackle and after this was dry I worked on the Notebook with the White Coarse PanPastel and the Black Pearlescent Pan.
What the crackle combined with PanPastel does is give the background a nice crackled look. You can see the tiny cracks they are filled up with the PanPastels.
the Front of the Notebook was made with Gesso, second layer is Light Modelling Paste.

And this is what it looks like from upclose....can you see all the tiny crackles....I just love the way it came out and what the two products combined are doing on paper
This is the backside of the Notebook. This was made the same way I did the front With Gesso Light Modelling Paste and a stencil. Crackle on top and when that was dry I Painted Matt Gel Medium on top.
So the last thing I did on the front was, place the drawing of the girl and underneith the Costa Rica letters. They were stamped on paper and than I cut the letters out of the paper and placed them on the Notebook.
On the inside of the Notebook I stamped 2016, since it is the year 2016 when my colleques daughter is an intern and is going on a Journey to Costa Rica.
So Laura is on an adventure now and if you want to go on an adventure I suggest you come over to
